Sweet, savory, and smoky, it's no wonder the NBBQA awarded Hey Grill Hey Sweet Rub 2nd Place in 2023. A dark brown sugar base sets the stage for a bold blend of spices like smoked paprika, garlic powder, and cayenne, delivering savory depth with a subtle heat.

This rub is a must-have for ribs, pulled pork, and chicken, but don’t stop there. This smoky-sweet stuff adds rich, caramelized flavor to grilled seafood, roasted veggies, and more.

Perfect for:

  • Ribs
  • Chicken
  • Pulled Pork

I typically make my own rubs and sauces however I found the Hey Grill Hey recipe for smoked turkey which I did for thanksgiving, as well as a few snow crab leg clusters. I decided to buy the recommended rub and BBQ sauce as well. Both the Sweet Rub and the Whiskey Peach sauce were AMAZING! So much so that I bought more as well as a few other items to send out as Christmas presents to friends.
